    Losing Weight By Thinking Green

    Now more than ever, people are trying to lose weight by thinking green. Green tea is one of the hottest items on the market today. Its medicinal properties have been known for years. But can green tea actually allow you to shed those undesirable pounds?

    Research conducted for the American Journal of Clinical Nutrition states that a green tea diet can speed up your metabolism and oxidize fat without increasing your heart beat. This means that you could achieve a rapid metabolism with green tea without suffering heart trouble. In other words, green tea enables you to increase your expenditure of energy without causing adverse health effects.

    If you find the taste of green tea hard to swallow, you could obtain green tea extract in a pill. The 500-milligram capsules should be consumed two or three periods each day in order for you to receive maximum benefit.

    Of course, you might be wondering at this point how much green tea is enough. Some medical experts advocate as a lot as ten cups a day. Other health specialists say that two to three cups are sufficient. Yet other medical experts advocate splitting the difference, calling for four to five cups of green tea daily.

    Green tea reduces your "bad" cholesterol count, while enhancing your "good" cholesterol count. As a result, those who drink green tea can substantially increase their intake of high cholesterol food, yet maintain a relatively low bad cholesterol count. Green tea can also decrease your blood sugar, protecting you against diabetes or at least lowering symptoms of diabetes.

    A number of studies have been done in order to ascertain the advantages of green tea. For instance, researcher William Rumpler conducted a study in order to determine the effects of green tea intake on men. The outcomes indicated that the energy expenditure for tea-drinkers was three percent higher after they eaten the tea. However, Rumpler and his colleagues believe additional research requirements to be conducted in order to determine the full effect of green tea upon the human body.

    Of course, in addition to weight loss, there are other blessings to the GreenTea diet. It is believed to be effective in preventing Alzheimer's disease, combating flu and colds, and boosting your immune system. As a result, a number of people drink the beverage strictly for its medicinal value.

    On a segment of the "Oprah Winfrey" talk show, Dr. Nicholas Perricone said that if you replaced coffee with green tea, you can lose as a lot as ten pounds in six weeks. Perricone stated, "Coffee has organic acids that raise your blood sugar, raise insulin. Insulin puts a lock on body fat. When you switch over to green tea, you obtain your caffeine, you're all set, but you will drop your insulin levels and body fat will fall very rapidly. So 10 pounds in six weeks, I will guarantee it."

    However, note that the physician is not prescribing green tea per se, but rather calling it preferable to coffee. However, it appears clear that green tea is a healthier beverage than coffee. A study published by the American Journal of Clinical Study reports that green tea pushes fat oxidation, and that this way appears to be the result of more than just the caffeine that is a component of the tea. In other words, there appear to be properties inherent in green tea that foster fat oxidation.

    It is intriguing to note that some people prize which is preferable: loose-leaf green tea that you buy online or the green tea that you could purchase at the supermarket. Generally speaking, supermarket green tea is considered lower in quality than green tea purchased over the Internet. It has been said that green tea offered on the Web also enables you to obtain the the bulk out of your money.

    It appears that green tea is more than just a passing fad. It has emerged as a legitimate health help - a product which can aid you lose weight over the long run. While there is no such thing as a magic fix for weight loss, you should consider adding green tea to your diet, not only for its weight loss value, but for its medicinal qualities as well.
